I loved staying at the Patterson. Lovely room/house with the most comfortable bed I've slept in. The entire staff was amazing and so friendly. Walkable area with restaurant and things to do.

Food in restaurant not great - raw patty. Food in late night cafe awful with terrible service. Stir fried rice was raw / hard - like it came out of a bag - putting raw rice in hot oil is not how you make fried rice - it does not work that way. Broke a tooth. Wasted money - no refund or credit. Entire meals were awful. Limited machines. Needs updating. Prices too high for experience.
